Default My V6 is still a work in progress

I am a new subscriber. I have a 2003 v6 that I love and am in the process of rebuilding into v8 standings. The exterior looks great, so I think, now I'm working on the v8 part of the project. I will have pics posted tomorrow if anyone wants to see. And maybe someone might give some advice on the v8 engine swap.

Unless you're putting in a 5.0L Cammer or something similarly wild, it's going to be cheaper to simply buy a v8 car.

It will cost you more than the difference in price to do it. And then you'll just have GT-level performance.

It would be cheaper to build the six, and then for the 4-5000 dollars you've invested, you can have a car that performs better than a GT.

The only reason to do a swap is if you're building a real street rod, and you're going to throw out everything in the process.

Welcome to AFM... We are glad you joined!!!

The 2003 V6 has 195 HP.... With some work you can have it way over what the GT's have... i mean your almost at the pre 99 GT's
